+Subject: [PATCH] arm64: kpti: Whitelist early Arm Neoverse N1 revisions
+
+Early revisions (r1p0) of the Neoverse N1 core did not feature the
+CSV3 field in ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 to advertise they are not affected by
+the Spectre variant 3 (aka Meltdown) vulnerability.
+
+Add this particular revision to the whitelist to avoid enabling KPTI.
